Idle game leads to another world.

Chapter 1534 Guard Token
The sky gradually brightened. Although it was still far from "morning", the early summer sunshine came much earlier than usual, enough to dispel the gloom of the night.

Because it had just rained, the air outside was extremely fresh, mixed with the fragrance of grass, trees and soil, which was refreshing.

"Thank you two ladies for your help."

"It's okay. When we see injustice, we should help."

"Hahaha, Miss Wu's quick words make me look hypocritical."

Wang Biaotou bowed to Wu Shaoyi and Yang Yiyi:
"If I hadn't had the darts on me, I would have drunk three bowls of wine with the two ladies. If you need me in the future, just come to my Xingyuan Escort Agency and tell me. I will do my best."

"Captain Wang, you are too polite. It's a pity that those thieves got away. You must be careful along the way."

"Thank you for your concern, lady. I'll take my leave now."

The two men clasped their fists, and Captain Wang asked the escort to keep a close eye on the items. Soon they walked out of the ruined Taoist temple until they were completely out of sight.

At this time, Yang Yiyi said leisurely and a little scared:
"Those black shadows just now, they really seemed to be ghosts?"

"Did you just notice that?"

Li Chengqi said:

"As soon as I came online, I saw you guys chasing after the ghosts."

Yang Yiyi was just skeptical at first, but when she heard what Li Chengxi said, she immediately felt shocked from head to toe, and goose bumps appeared immediately.

"So you never realized it?"

Yang Yiyi really didn't notice that those shadows were ghosts.

Although she had heard ghost stories since she was a child, Yang Yiyi had never seen what a ghost looked like.

Since she had encountered people playing tricks more than once before, her first reaction was that someone was replicating the classic again, and it must be just a few thieves with extremely fast movements.

The reason I chose to use the Black Bear Three Pushers and the Ghost Car Sound is because it was pitch black around us, and the thieves were fast and hard to catch, so I couldn't just catch one and kick him to death like I usually do.

This was a blessing in disguise, because the most troublesome thing about ghosts is that they are almost immune to physical attacks.

Even if you have immense strength, you can hardly move a ghost at all.

But Wu Shaoyi and Yang Yiyi both used their internal energy to attack, so the effect was naturally outstanding.

At this time, Yang Yiyi didn't realize that she was actually fighting ghosts. It was not until they were illuminated by the sunlight and immediately disappeared like smoke and mist that she realized that something was wrong.

However, Yang Yiyi told Wang Biaotou that they were just a few thieves. Wang Biaotou believed Yang Yiyi's words without a doubt and thought they were really a few thieves until he left...

how to say.

Although it was a good thing that Yang Yiyi didn't get scared when she encountered a ghost, her judgment was also extremely wrong...

"No more, no more."

Yang Yiyi held her head and shook it, as if trying to get the scene out of her mind.

"Let's go quickly, the ghost might come out again."

Originally, Yang Yiyi felt a little sleepless because she was woken up, but now she is fine and completely awake.

Although ghosts are not difficult to deal with for people like Wu Shaoyi and Yang Yiyi who can use internal force to attack, the psychological damage is another matter.

But before leaving, Li Chengxi stopped them.

"No ghosts appeared last time when we stayed in this dilapidated temple. It was just Qin Yan and the others who were playing tricks."

"Um...Brother Li, what does this mean?"

"It means that someone has died in this dilapidated Taoist temple in the past two years."

Regardless of their strength, undead creatures will not appear out of thin air. Where undead creatures appear, there must be dead people.

Wu Shaoyi asked curiously:

"It could be a vendetta or someone wandering here. It shouldn't be surprising."

"Death is not uncommon, but look, where are the bodies and bloodstains in the Taoist temple?"

These words made Wu Shaoyi stunned. Indeed, there was no corpse in the ruined Taoist temple.

Yesterday, before the two of them came in to spend the night, they deliberately walked around the dilapidated Taoist temple twice.

If it was a feud and the body was taken away by someone, there should be some bloodstains. Even if a wild beast ate the body clean, it is impossible that there would be no trace left.

But this is contrary to the conditions for the appearance of ghosts.

Yang Yiyi suddenly thought of a place:
"Brother Li, could it be that..."

"Yes, there is a place you didn't see."

The last time I stayed overnight in this ruined Taoist temple, I encountered Qin Yan pretending to be a ghost. She relied on the secret room under the ruined Taoist temple. (See Chapter 168 for details)
Yang Yiyi had completely forgotten about this matter. If the body was not visible on the surface, then it must be in the secret room.

So Li Chengxi asked the two of them to turn around and go back to the main hall of the ruined Taoist temple. He turned on the flashlight and quickly found the secret door that had been opened once before under the pillar supporting the hall.

This dilapidated Taoist temple was once a base for selling illegal salt, and sacks of illegal salt are still piled up underneath.

However, as soon as the tunnel door was opened, the two smelled a particularly strong stench.

This meant that they found the right place, but Yang Yiyi started to shiver again.

"Don't panic. You only saw five or six ghosts. Ghosts are very weak unless they are very old."

Whether or not a person becomes a ghost depends on whether or not he or she has obsessions before death, but how strong his or her abilities are is basically closely related to the age.

The strength of a thousand-year-old ghost and a newly transformed ghost is definitely not the same.

With Li Chengxi present, Yang Yiyi regained her courage and walked downstairs with a flashlight.

The further they went down, the stronger the stench became. Following the smell, they saw some dark brown substances scattered on the ground. When they shone a flashlight on them, they discovered that they were actually dark brown bloodstains.

Judging from the degree of drying of the bloodstain, it must have been at least half a month ago.

Continuing forward, the two found several bodies in a corner where there was a pile of sacks filled with contraband salt.

There were less than ten people, and they had been rotted beyond recognition. However, one could still tell from the curled pieces of flesh that they had been hacked to death with swords.

Wu Shaoyi pinched his nose and looked up and down at the clothes of these people.

"It seems like there are people from several sects."

These dead people were all dressed as martial artists, but they were not fellow brothers. Wu Shaoyi recognized that there were people from Ye Zi Sect, People from Shiliuzhai, People from Qijue Sect, and people she didn't know.

"Go a little further. Don't be afraid. Don't worry. It's just a pile of corpses, not ghosts."

Although it's not a ghost, it still takes courage to get close to a pile of rotting corpses.

The two of them slowly moved a few steps closer, and Li Chengxi said:
"Emmmm... Could it be that these people were cleaning out the traitors in the underworld, and then were killed by the traitors?"

After all, Li Chengxi also saw through right-clicking to check the attributes that these people came from different sects, and it felt like a joint law enforcement effort was counterattacked.

But when you think about where these bodies were found, something seems a little off.

Not everyone knows the secret passage of this broken Taoist temple. It is normal that people from the Sixteen Villages are among the dead, so they know the secret passage.

But why were they hacked to death here?

If it was a joint law enforcement operation, they should have been killed while chasing the traitors.

Could it be that the person they were hunting killed them at Podao Temple and then threw the body in?

There is no need for this. There have been many deaths in the underworld recently, and a few more deaths are nothing new.

So Li Chengxi changed his mind and thought, what if this group of people were not jointly enforcing the law to hunt down the traitors and were killed in return, but they were hunted down by a group of people?
He wanted to hide in the secret passage for a while, but was discovered and hacked to death here.

The bloodstains and signs of fighting around also proved this conjecture.

However, Li Chengxi would not talk to the dead, so this is all we can know at the moment.

Just when Li Chengxi was about to ask Yang Yiyi and the others to leave, he suddenly saw something flash among the pile of corpses.

"Wait, look at the corpse on the left, is he holding something in his hand?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Yiyi stretched her neck forward, but couldn't see clearly, so she had to approach carefully and move away the corpse's rotten hands.

A brass token appeared before his eyes, and it looked very familiar.

It is the token of the imperial guards of Yuezhou State. The imperial guards around Princess Mingzhu all have this thing. No wonder it looks so familiar...
